Chelsea boss Conte: Arsenal and Wenger have a good story

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte says he's full of admiration for Arsenal rival Arsene Wenger.

Conte admits he respects Arsenal's loyalty to Wenger.

"I think that Arsenal have a good story," Conte said at his pre-match press conference. "It's an important team.

"I don't want to go into a situation of Wenger or Mourinho.

"I think that Wenger is doing a good job.

"It's fantastic if somebody is able to stay for 20 years in one club.

"I think that there is satisfaction in both sides.

"Sometimes I think that it's important for the manager to know that he doesn't always have to win, lose or draw.

"Sometimes if you judge only for the wins, you make a big mistake and you pay for this in the future."
